Konoha: Start by unlocking the caged bird

Chapter 146 Make Konoha great again!
Hinata Yuzuru smiled helplessly, looking at the familiar people in the distance, but he saw that even Hatake Kakashi was raising his hands to him at this moment, with the corners of his mouth raised under the mask, and it seemed that he was also joining in the fun and shouting loudly.

"On this special day, July 18th, I am deeply honored to be able to personally serve as the Fifth Hokage in front of everyone."

As soon as Hinata Yuzuru finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and pressed down, and the crowd suppressed their emotions in time and waited quietly for his speech.

"Before I became Hokage, I imagined countless times that if one day I could become Hokage, I could change the world.

By then, what will I do, what should I do, and what can I do.

I thought a lot, but in the end, I realized that there were not many things I expected or wanted to change.

I just want a peaceful world without war, where everyone can live and work in peace and contentment. As long as they are willing to work hard, everyone will have food to eat, clothes to wear, and be taken care of when they are young and have someone to rely on when they are old.

Children can go to school, adults can have jobs, they can see a doctor when they are sick, and they can get a fair judgment when they encounter injustice, and trustworthy counseling institutions can help people get justice.
All of this sounds complicated, but in fact, is this really too much to ask? "

When Hinata Yuzuru's words fell, the crowd below remained surprisingly silent. In the huge square where you could hear a pin drop, everyone's eyes were shining with hope and longing, looking straight at the people standing on the high platform. Yuzuru Hinata on.

“I have heard about it in literature and other people’s oral accounts.

Konoha was led by the first generation leader, Hashirama Senju.

Didn't the people of Konoha at that time live in the kind of life I mentioned?

So, why has this vision become so far away now? "

Hyuga Yuzuru's rhetorical question caused many people to fall into silence involuntarily, especially some elderly people who had expressions of reminiscence on their faces, but also had unconcealable sadness.

“Why are there always enemies who stir up disputes and start wars?”

"Why are there always people who suffered so much in the war, but they turn around and accuse Konoha, harbor resentment, and take the opportunity to take revenge?"

"Why does Konoha frequently become a thorn in the side of other ninja villages and suffer hardship and torture?"

"The original intention of the first generation to build the village was to keep children away from the battlefield. But why do people like me still have to pick up weapons, rush to the battlefield, and face death at an age when I should be enjoying the caress of my parents?"

"Why would the people in the village accuse their companions who should have shared honor and disgrace, spread rumors and slander, and even harm their colleagues!?"

When questions were raised one by one, the third generation, who had a serious expression on the court, looked slightly embarrassed. He unconsciously glanced at Hatake Kakashi not far away, but saw the look in his eyes at this moment.

It was an extremely serious and earnest expression - at this moment, he was staring intently at Hinata Yuzuru on the stage.

"I think it's the Konoha of the past that has lost its way."

Hinata Yuzuru's words were a criticism of Konoha's past, but at this moment, they made the entire audience stare at him with even more sincerity and focus.

"Konoha was exhausted in the war, struggling to survive in grief again and again. In the process, countless hatreds and confusions arose, making the village fragmented and hope out of reach.

We always talk about hope, about the future, saying that the future will be good and that there will be hope in the future.
but! From the moment I became Hokage! I made up my mind - never leave the responsibility to the next generation! "

"Maybe not today! Maybe not tomorrow! Maybe not even next year, but I swear, I will let you witness it with your own eyes, the real moment that is coming!!"

Like a landslide.

Like a tsunami.

The uncontrollable shouting made the Hokage Rock seem to tremble slightly. Hinata Yuzuru, who was standing on the high platform, could feel the earth-shaking tremor.

Looking at the people below him with their hands stretched out desperately and shouting their names loudly, Hinata Yuzuru just raised his left hand high, pointing to the sky, and placed his right hand at the position of his heart.

"If an excellent ninja can do something like this, then I must become an excellent ninja!
If an excellent Hokage can do such a thing, then I must become an excellent Hokage!
If only God can do such a thing, then I want to become God!
Konoha has been in decline for too long, and the world has suffered!

It's not just me, not just our group of people, but everyone in this world, all the people who are suffering, are sincerely longing for peace!

Desire is power! And this power will make Konoha
Great again! ”

The noisy cheers gradually condensed into one voice.

"Make Konoha great again!"

While Hyuga Yuzuru vigorously waved his arms to the sky, even the ANBU behind him who was responsible for guarding and observing could not help but speak softly, unable to suppress the excitement in his heart and whispered in agreement.

Which Konoha citizen doesn’t yearn for the good life back then?
Under the command of the first Senju Hashirama, no one in the world dares to disobey, and no one dares to invade!
They longed for Konoha to return to its peak, and they had longed for peace for too long. Until this moment, they finally saw the clear dawn of victory in Hinata Yuzuru.

The restless atmosphere in the field had reached its peak, but Hinata Yuzuru stretched out his hand, pressed it down, changed the subject, and his voice became calm again.

"During the time I was the acting Hokage,

I expanded the Ninja School, opened a factory, renovated old houses for the villagers free of charge, and did my best to enrich your lives.

Konoha's products began to sell well overseas, and Konoha's economy became more prosperous than ever before.

I make Konoha more open and tolerant, and provide everyone who desires peace with the opportunity to join Konoha.

I opened Konoha Bank, Medical Insurance, and Konoha Court.
But even so, I still often wonder whether I have done enough and whether what I have done is good. "

As Hinata Yuzuru finished speaking, someone below shouted with unbearable excitement: "Long live the Fifth Hokage!"

His sudden shout seemed a bit abrupt. Hinata Yuzuru smiled and looked over, as if thinking about something. He chuckled softly, "I remember you. You are Mr. Ryugu, who immigrated from the Land of Fire. Not long after you joined Konoha, you wanted to raise pigs in Konoha and hoped to open a pig farm. The ninja in charge of the review was unsure whether to approve the loan or the land for you. In the end, I stamped the seal for you myself."

A low laugh sounded, but Hinata Yuzuru said seriously: "But in just one year, you have achieved results. Not only have you taken good care of the improved piglets and let them thrive on our table, but so far, every loan has been repaid on time, and you have also compiled a sow care manual and submitted it to the Ministry of Agriculture and Animal Husbandry.

I personally read your manual and it is very well written!"

No one thought that Hinata Yuzuru would praise an 'unreasonable' pig farmer on such a solemn occasion.

What's more, he is an immigrant, an 'outsider' who has just joined Konoha!
The man called Mr. Ryugu is a rough man in his forties. He is dressed a bit shabbily. A brown sleeveless short shirt made of unknown cloth and new style sports trousers look strange together. He is unshaven, but he is not. He didn't look sloppy, but his face was flushed and his mouth was wide open, and he didn't know how to reply.

"Your manual helped the ninjas of the Ministry of Agriculture and Animal Husbandry better understand the techniques of pig farming, and played an important role in the breeding of a new generation of improved piglets in our laboratory. I personally decided to ask the bank to waive the interest on your loan and give you an additional reward. I don't know if the reward has been implemented?"

It wasn't until the people next to him criticized Long Gu that he said loudly as if he had just woken up from a dream: "It's done! I'm told to raise a new batch of improved piglets for me! It's free!"

He spoke with a slight accent, but now no one laughed at him anymore. Instead, they looked at him with envy - who doesn't want to be praised by Hinata Yuzuru!
Hinata Yuzuru smiled and said, "Of course, your manual does have some shortcomings. You need to practice your handwriting more."

He smiled kindly and made a joke, and the villagers laughed in response. Long Gu scratched his head and chuckled, but his face was still filled with excitement and an incredible sense of dreaminess.

Hinata Yuzuru paused for a moment before becoming serious again.

He looked at the people under him carefully and spoke clearly: "Three hundred and sixty, the top scholar in every field. I hope that in the future Konoha Village, in every industry and every field, there will be people like Mr. Ryuutani." People are here, and only if you work hard with me can Konoha become better, and keep getting better!"

"I hope that in the future, Konoha will not only be better than other ninja villages in terms of ninjas, but also explore more new areas, take the lead in multiple tracks, and run far ahead with great vigor!"

"Here, I have some surprises to tell you."

Hinata Yuzuru paused until everyone's attention was focused, then he said solemnly: "Thanks to the efforts of all the ninjas in Konoha, now I can finally proudly tell you that now, Konoha will truly enter a new era, and, starting from Konoha, change the world!
If I were to summarize this era, it would probably be summarized in a few key words: modernization, mechanization, and informatization!

So, what is mechanization?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the LCD screen that was originally broadcasting his image in real time suddenly changed, and a promotional video of Konoha Heavy Industries appeared.

Car engines roared as they sped along the roads; motorcycles replaced bicycles traveling through the streets and alleys; excavators, seeders, and harvesters rumbled in the farmland and construction sites; and speedboats raced across the ocean.

In the factory, while machines are making sounds, workers are working with large equipment to assemble cars and manufacture parts.

The last flash of Konoha Heavy Industries' logo still had the Konoha logo on it.

"This is mechanization!"

He paused, and amid the uproar and shock of the crowd, he dropped another bombshell.

"What is informatization!?"

The Konoha Communications logo appeared on the LCD screen again, and below the Konoha Communications logo, the clan emblems of Konoha, Nara, and Yamanaka flashed by.

The screen flashed, and a brand new thin LCD TV, with text and voice instructions, explained to the audience the TV station and the function of TV, telling everyone that from now on, TV is no longer just a rare gadget that can only play videotapes and watch movies, but a device that can enter thousands of households and make information dissemination faster and more transparent.

Then, an image of a keypad phone appeared. The ninja in the image was fiddling with the phone, demonstrating to everyone how to make a call and how to edit text messages.

Finally, there is an introduction to a concept.

network!

Current Internet technology still has certain limitations, and its cost is high, making it difficult to promote to ordinary people. The key point is that the current Konoha technology tree is purely fantasy in style, and even Hyuga Yuzuru can't provide guidance.

But judging from the speed of Konoha's research in recent years, Hinata Yuzuru believes that the emergence and popularization of the Internet will only take a few years at most, and will definitely not be slower than before he traveled through time.

Today's Konoha, or today's ninja world, is in an era of technological explosion. Almost every period of time, the level of technology can achieve a leap due to a new discovery.

Yuzuru Hinata optimistically estimates that perhaps in just five years, everyone will be able to use smartphones and surf the Internet.

The first generation of computers has also been successfully developed, but it is currently only suitable for scientific calculations, coding programs and other software advancements. It will take a certain amount of time, but he estimates that it may be possible in about five years. His initial idea for computers began to gradually enter thousands of households.

"This is informatization!"

When the shocking promotional video gradually came to an end, Yuzuru Hinata waved his hand, and a short video shot by Yuzuru Hinata himself was played one after another on the screen.

The shooting of this short film was very interesting. Due to the immature CG technology, or not at all, when shooting some concept films, the ninjas once embarked on the path of making "special photography". Fortunately, Yuzuru Hinata had a sudden idea. , developed a peculiar illusion technique 'The Art of Transforming Hearts and Shadows'.

This genjutsu, or I don’t know if it is a genjutsu or not, is a unique ninjutsu that is not difficult to learn, but it requires a lot of mental strength to use. Its function is to directly project the images in your mind like a projection. AR images are generally presented in the real world.

This concept film was shot by pointing a camera at his simulated fantasy, but after simple editing, it looks no less impressive than future computer-rendered CG images.

The picture shows the future scene of Konoha as envisioned by Hinata Yuzuru.

It's far more advanced science fiction than the background in the original Boruto.

High-rise buildings are rising one after another.

The streets are busy with traffic.

People are using very modern mobile phones and wearing fashionable clothes that can be described as 'avant-garde'. All kinds of neon signs are flashing and there are laughter and joy everywhere.

What is even more shocking is that even people wearing forehead protectors from other ninja villages can walk openly on the streets of Konoha and enjoy their daily lives with the people of Konoha with a peaceful expression.

The planes in the sky broke through the clouds, and it only took an ordinary person one day to reach the Hidden Mist Village from Konoha.

At home, you can use your mobile phone to video chat with your friends, play games, take various public transportation, and work leisurely in a clean and bright place with a beautiful machine that they don’t recognize.

After returning home, the whole family will have a warm reunion, go out to play, have fun in the playground, and even visit the tailed beasts.
Yes, in the promotional video, Hyuga Yuzuru even let Shukaku, the one-tailed beast, appear as the background picture of the "Sand Playground", adding a weird sense of "black humor" to the picture.

This short film is not too long, only five minutes and thirty seconds, but how many "picture promotions" of the game have Yuzuru Hinata seen before traveling through time?
After learning and applying the technology, which surpassed his teacher, the pictures he took were extremely shocking.

Hinata Yuzuru didn't speak until the end of the scene, in front of the dazed eyes of the people below.

“This is modernization!”

He looked at the people below and smiled.

"I want all of this to come within twenty years!"

What kind of crazy daydreamer must one be to have such a fantasy?
Some tourists outside Konoha Village looked at him in disbelief.

But the people in Konoha had already started cheering.

question?

No, believe it first!
Facing the crowd, Hinata Yuzuru smiled slightly and said, "That's pretty much what I want to say.

First of all, I would like to thank everyone for coming, including the Daimyo of the Land of Fire. I hope that what you see and hear today will give you a more intuitive understanding of Konoha.

Secondly, I must thank all the ninjas who have worked hard for Konoha in the past few years.

Nara Shikaku-senpai of the Nara clan
A clan from the mountains.”

Under the surprised gaze of many people, Hyuga Yuzuru took the trouble to express his gratitude to many people by name. At the end, he solemnly spoke with a serious expression.

"Finally, I must thank the Uchiha clan."

The atmosphere in the field suddenly stagnated.

Uchiha Itachi, who was far away, was originally standing in the corner with a calm expression, but at this moment, his expression became complicated.

Uchiha Shisui, who was wearing a mask and standing under the stage to provide protection, looked up, with a look of surprise under the mask.

As for who was most touched by this sentence, and whose expression changed most obviously,
"Hey, Sasuke, are you okay?"

Uzumaki Naruto, who was full of excitement, turned to look at his partner in confusion.

Uchiha Sasuke, who had his hands in his pockets, had a very complicated expression at the moment, his lips were pursed tightly, and his eyes were staring straight at Hinata Yuzuru on the stage, without saying a word, he just shook his head.

thank
He clenched his hands unconsciously.

What kind of person are you?
Hinata Yuzuru
